Today I sit here with recovering Pro Boxer Acaeus Vertis. He has agreed to be interviewed about his recent attempt on suicide to reassure his fans that he's coming back, with a vengeance.

Interviewer So Acaeus, you've been out of the game for a good three months and some change, are you sure you can make a comeback?

Acaeus Yeah, easily. There's a reason there are only two losses on my record of 36-2. My goal has always been 103-2.

Interviewer Acaeus, why take your own life? Fans were shocked to hear that you wanted to.

Acaeus Because I felt....like I had nothing to live for anymore. You know, only myself which is a depressing thought. That's why I opened up Spartan Gym after. To try and find that...something to live for, you know?

Interviewer Rumors on the street is, there is someone you befriended when you opened up this gym, is it true? What are you receiving?

Let's just say, that yes I made a friend. And in respect of his privacy, I am going to keep it as just that. A friend.

Interviewer Alright, and what about your son? Where has he been hiding all this time?

Acaeus With his mom, but when they heard of my suicide....he wanted to come up here. The mom...died in the car crash but...my son made it. And you know, that's really important to me. Without him, I don't think I'd be able to even open up a gym and look to a new horizon. He's been a huge blessing.

Interviewer Is he going to follow in your footsteps?

Acaeus I uh, highly doubt that. Considering he's only 14. But I mean, we're totally having the time of our lives together.

Interviewer What do you look forward to in the continuing of your MMA Career?

Acaeus Peace. As strange as it sounds for a boxer to say that, life is always....dragging you down. You know? I just hope to find that peace in the storm.
